ROBERT FRYER.

The attack made by the New
York Herald on Robert Fryer the
inventor and his connection with
the Arrow Steamship Company
must have been due in the fact
that gullable reporter was cram
med full OF lies by some interested
rival of the company. The writer
enjoyed the personal acquaintance
of Mr.. Fryer for years. He ranks
among the leading practical inven-
tors of America and his honesty
has never been called in question.
He lived for years on this coast and
his friends in California who read
the Herald's attack put it down
at once as Job on the part of some
ocean steamship company to down
a new competing enterprise.

government, but what justice is
there in this instance.
South Carolina has two strong
men in the Senate-Hampton and
Butler-but her delegation IN the
House is way down at the foot OF
the intellectual ladder. Texas
stands on the same round with her,
and if it were possible to find a
lower one, North Carolina would
get the prize. Stewart of Nevada was
warmly welcomed after his absence of
many years, and is considered one of
the heavy men of the Senate.
The Western States have the
strongest delegations in both wings
of the Capitol, and completely over
shadow the old Atlantic and South
ern States. The center of real pow
er is west OF Ohio. 1t is strange
how these things come round but
they do come, and we have to face
the facts. The great Northwestern
States are bound to control this
Government, and shape its policy,
and the politician who does not re-
cognize the fact will be left in the
cold. Ii 1 we're an aspirant for any
position, should hail from the
West.
